Philadelphia (August 4, 2014) – This past Saturday night at the Revel Resort in Atlantic City, Heavyweight Joey Dawejko made an emphatic statement as he destroyed David Williams in just 108 seconds of the scheduled 8-round bout that was part of the Sergey Kovalev – Blake Caparello card.
Dawejko, who was making his first start under the Club 1957 Management banner scored three destructive knockdowns and looked like the fighter that many thought he would be after a decorated amateur career.
Dawejko of Philadelphia is now 11-3-2 with 4 knockouts said, “I felt great tonight, It definitely was a good performance and a great win.”
Dawejko gives a lot of credit to manager Mark Cipparone and Club 1957 Management.
“Mark supports his fighters to the max and that’s a big part of it. I have so much more confidence from him and I love what he does for his fighters.”
Said Mark Cipparone, “Joey was terrific on Saturday and the best is yet to come. We have only had a him a few weeks and we know that in the next two fights, he will be in great condition and he will be on his way to do the major things that people had believed he would do coming out of the amateurs.”
Dawejko is promoted by Peltz Boxing.

Joey Dawejko Post Fight Interview 080214
As in September, I once again ran out of gas in the 10th & 11th championship rounds of October & November with this column, but I recovered to complete them and will unleash a few more flurries to close out the 12th and final round.
In the first week of October, Hassan N’Dam won a UD over Curtis Stevens in an eliminator for the right to challenge Jermaine Taylor who defeated aging Sam Soliman to regain the IBF Middleweight title. How Taylor even earned this title shot is another story altogether, but it is all irrelevant as he is now the champion. However he will not have too much time to savor his victory as he has assault and battery charges pending against him and an upcoming court fight that may turn out to be the toughest fight of his life, just when things started to look up for him in boxing, we wish him luck.
